I have an AMD HD6950 card and that's what the game is using. I just noted that I also have HD3000 video adapter on the MB that has not been disabled. Should that be disabled in device manager?

I guess it would be personal preference
in my case, the only CPU with on die graphics is my i7-2600k, in which I have it disabled, to where all video / graphics is coming from my dedicated video card
If it was me, I would disable it for your AMD CPU/on die GPU graphics............... but what it does is use the on die integrated HD3000 chip for graphics that don't require a lot of power/performance, then should turn it over to your dedicated HD6950 video card when it needs it for like Aces High or other Games, graphic intensive programs, etc.......
easiest/simpliest way I can explain it
EDIT: you posted that the HD3000 is integrated on the MB, I mistook it for being built in die on your CPU processor ( like my Intel CPU )..... if it is integrated into the Motherboard itself, then I would definitely disable it, and I would disable it in the bios, instead of doing it through device manager............. YMMV
hope this helps

Actually,I don't know if it's in the Intel i7 CPU or on the MB. It just shows as Intel (R) HD 3000. Since the MB is a Gigabyte I suspect it may be built into the CPU.

It's the CPU. I disable mine.
-
HD3000 is CPU.
You can either disable it, leave it alone in which case Intel will hand off graphics to your dedicated card when needed or, if it's like my laptop which has a dedicated NVidia card set one or the other as a preference (which I do in the Nvidia control panel... not sure about AMD).

Disable it in the BIOS.
-
Definitely disable it in the BIOS.
That HD graphics thing isn't for this sort of gaming at all. Maybe some browser game but that's about it.

Before disabling it in the BIOS, remove the driver for it.
